The Effect of Climate Change on Invasive Threats to Michigan’s Trees
April 30 @ 9:00 am - 10:00 am

Not MI Species Webinar Series
They’ll need that hug: How climate change is increasing native and invasive threats to Michigan’s trees.
Invasive insects and diseases, including hemlock woolly adelgid, beech bark and beech leaf disease, are taking a toll on Michigan’s forests. As if this weren’t enough, the changing climate is further stressing trees and may lead to greater impacts by both invasive and native insects and diseases. Join forest entomologist Erin Biggs and forest pathologist Simeon Wright of the Department of Natural Resources to learn more about these emerging issues, how they are being addressed, and which may have the biggest impact on Michigan’s forests and urban landscapes.
After registering, you will receive an email from “EGLE Outreach” with a link for you to use to join the webinar.
